I hope I got this right.... Some Video Notes: Try to keep serotonin levels stable Intake slow carbs 2-3 months keto state most often Slow carb approach Intermittent fasting No refined flours Zero gluten 15%-20% proteins Ration fruits Consumes low glycemic food Combines all approaches Don’t combine carbs & fats Insulin manipulation Try to avoid spiking insulin Keep gluten levels low
I've been keto for over a year and recently celebrated my son's 14th birthday. I'm a type 2 diabetic and control my glucose without meds keeping my numbers low consistently. I use slow carbs when cycling but anyways. We had double fudge birthday cake and I really wanted to have some so I downed a glass of acv in water with cinnamon before eating the cake. My glucose only went up to 115 which for sure kicked me out of ketosis but wasn't a big enough spike to cause concerns with the diabetes. It did however upset my stomach like when you eat to much sugar. Totally get where it can make you feel like crap. But it was nice to be able to join everyone else in the celebration. Don't think I'll be doing it again anytime soon though. :)
Great message :-) Personally, I follow several Health Channels. Each one gives me knowledge of how to eat, train, etc. What I have done is, I chew the meat and spit out the bones... Since being diagnosed with Diabetes, I have gradually developed my own diet, one that is right for me, my finances and my lifestyle. Since being injured in an accident, my income has really taken a hit, so now I am building a Hydroponic garden, to grow my own Organic vegetables. Not having to buy Organic veggies will make room to buy other essentials... Like you, I developed what is right for me... I'm my own experiment... You have good reasons to live your diet and I have mine. Everyone is different and one diet cannot be right for everyone. We are human and not punched out with a cookie cutter... I love your approach. You make a lot of sense. Thanks for the video. It's very helpful :-)
This is very helpful. To summarize: he takes several different diet approaches that reduce the impact of insulin. All the methods he used can be found in various diet books. But in summary, they all talk about how important it is to lower foods that impact insulin levels. So he is saying that he uses multiple methods to reach his goals, depending upon what he's trying to achieve.
I love listening to you. I don't understand the Keto yet but I have been 8/16 I.F. for a while, it's basically how I boosted my physic and plunged into full athletism. I also have been blessed with longevity as a result. People don't ever think that I am over 33-35 years old.
Jason Antezana he doesn't have cut scenes because he puts videos in between edits. It masks the bloopers he makes. So instead of annoying edit cuts, he puts a scene/video/photo in between.
Hey... you should coin this as the I-M Diet! (Insulin Manipulation) It isn't a ketogenic diet.. It isn't a carb backload/refeed diet... and people get confused because they are too focused on carbs/fats/protein/etc.
fantastic content! and yes we were all wondering what diet exactly you follow to look how you do. I've been 3 months keto and 22lbs down so far, trying to get that six pack i've never had in my life. thanks for the videos keep them coming! what is the time breakdown though? how long is your carb refeed before you go back to keto?
How often do you allow yourself to go out of ketosis? I like the idea of keeping the body guessing with cyclic keto and intermittent fasting as well as the occasional extended fast but I'm not sure what is the optimal duration of being in and out of ketosis. Thanks!
This video is great. I think you will understand him well enough if you’ve already done both diets. I do this also but most of the time in slow carbs, I’m into keto just when I need a optimized cognitive condition.
Ok, you may have covered this before, but I am new to the channel. Mu question is this, Why do I drip out of ketosis or my glucose rises when I sleep. My blood glucose is around 98 when I wake up and I don't start picking color on my keto sticks until mid morning. Thank you for reading if you get a chance.
Thanks much! You're exactly right about don't combine fats with carbs especially animal fats. A few seeds maybe, like on a salad but none is best. Many people confuse carbs because they put them in one group. Complex carbs like potatoes are good while simple carbs like refined and processed foods like doritos are bad. From the Starch diet to Paleo I've been looking for an answer of what is better long term. You've satisfied my search. Great video!
But combining fat with carb will further reduce the overall GI of the meal . For e.g. Humus , sessame tahini added to it lowers the GI of chick peas . More explanation is needed on why fat should not be combined with carbs .
Seperate your Carbs and your Fats. That's exactly what I wrote down on my journal a couple of weeks ago. It's amazing to see that you arrived at a similar conclusion. I arrived at this conclusion looking at some high carb vegans that also succeed by taking away fats. It seems like people who eat carbs and skip fats are as successful as low carbers if they keep seperating the two.
I too have difficulties with understanding how one would separate carbs from fats in general. If you implement this kind of diet strategy, do you completely stop cooking with oil, for example? What if you wanted to have like a salad with beans and carrots and have like a little dressing on there?
Thomas, I just signed on to say you look good, and I'm so happy for you and your Beautiful wife, handsome Lil Tommy, and your baby girL...Stay Blessed, and Keep up the Excellent Work, because you are helping a lot of people. 💚🙏🏽!
That salad was BIG. what works for me now is keto then two days a week carbs no more than 80 grams and mostly from veggies. On high carbs days I do intense workouts now. I always eat most my fat as my last meal with spinach or kale on the side or zuchinni. I do not eat after 6 pm. I may have a glass of whiskey though. I eat my carb fruit after my first meal. I prefer to workout briefly during ketosis and then again an hour after I eat. I do brief walks after my last meal. I do two meals a day only now. I love cycle schedule and seeing fast results and feeling stronger.. I love your videos
I was falling off the wagon(of Ketogenic diet) and eating all sorts of "forbidden carbs" in this month. This video made me think about the consequence of my actions...Thanks. I will choose which carb to eat if I fall off again.
This keto diet is having me feel weak and tired. My preworkout isnt even helping me in the gym. Im doing this to get lean. But how will i be able to maintain it without kito ?
Wow Great piece of info as always @thomas Replayed several times to digest, pretty tough. Can you please give more info on 1.) how to strategically implement high GI carbs? Be it during the Ketosis stage or the cycling stage? 2.) As you said, it’s bad to combine carbs+ fats in one meal, how about whey protein shake(think you said that spike insulin pretty high too) + fats eg, salmon or grass fed beef? Is it a no no too? Thanks Thomas, again, congratulations on your newly born baby and welcome to Fatherhood 🎉🎉🎉
Could you elaborate on fat and carb combinations please. So no nuts or seeds, avocado or guac with a bowl of salad and beans? When would you eat your fats and how?
Good breakdown here. My carb days have gotten cleaner and cleaner and more discerning the older I get and more dialed into ketosis I get. I just don't want to feel like crap and junky foods do that, so even my refeeding or cheat days are getting more disciplined.
I'm sorry, can you give me an example of a fat and carb combination so I have an idea please? This is all new to me and I've been following lately and need a bit of help! Thank you so much for all this info by the way!
Like a lot of others, I too am confused by the separation of carbs and fat. I understand the separation of, say, starch and fat, but does that mean I should not have EVOO with a non-starchy veggie salad?
So help me out with the not combining fats and carbs. Let’s say I have a meal of 4 egg whites and half an avocado, when would I consume say the black beans or Ezekiel toast I planned to have with it.? A completely separate meal an hour later?
I like your videos, yes it's a lot to take in, but nothing is simple what's to do with food and our bodies. What do you think about certain blood type being allergic to certain foods? And could you do a video of L-lysine ? Thank you!
Hey Thom what's up? I intermittent fast during the week and have many people I know after explaining its benefits doing the same but, I wanted to inquire about what breaks the fast other than food, particularly drinks with sugar in them. Does having let us say...orange juice or a cappuccino break the fast? Thanks, Q
What is the lowest Carb vegetables you consider eating? Is cucumbers one? And would it be ok to eat a cantaloupe with a chicken breast if you were just maintaining and trying not to gain
Hi Tom, When u mentioned about do not combine fats&carbs when off from ketogenic diet, does it mean during the period of carb recycling period, try to keep off from food high in fats (avocado, nuts as well) or do not combine fats&carbs in one meal?
Matthew Roach they must not have the internet? Because you could make something different everyday for a year and not even dent the available low carb recipes, I just made peanut butter walnut chocolate fat bombs today...... Jssyn
I had to see this 3 times to kind of understand it 😅 I think I will watch a few more times
I hope I got this right....
Some Video Notes:
Try to keep serotonin levels stable
Intake slow carbs
2-3 months keto state most often
Slow carb approach
Intermittent fasting
No refined flours
Zero gluten
15%-20% proteins
Ration fruits
Consumes low glycemic food
Combines all approaches
Don’t combine carbs & fats
Insulin manipulation
Try to avoid spiking insulin
Keep gluten levels low

Michael Warnock thanks for anecdote
Great post thanks for that I'll try it
How much cinnoman did you use in the water
Nice trick, I'm going to put that in my back pocket
@@GuacIsExtra99 half a teaspoon
Thomas' biceps got biceps. Every time I stare at his biceps, I turn into a bicepxual..
They're quite distracting aren't they?
Interesting ! Please make a course/book for combining these approaches with weight lifting
Love this guy, he just makes so much sense! Thanks Thomas!
you always explain things so well

Your videos are so great! So incredibly helpful and inspiring. Thank you!
Love you channel you’ve got a really calm way of explaining things.# number 1 diet info on RUclips 🎉
Love that we can read aswell as listen!
GREAT INFO! Thanks!!!
thanks for the video, interested in knowing how you would strategically implement high gi carbs.

Man, that sounds like a lot of work. I just got out of keto and started on slow carbs. I'm gaining muscles and losing fats as planned.
I love listening to you. I don't understand the Keto yet but I have been 8/16 I.F. for a while, it's basically how I boosted my physic and plunged into full athletism. I also have been blessed with longevity as a result. People don't ever think that I am over 33-35 years old.
There is no way Thomas should only have 275k subs. Definitely needs to be 1mill easy! Saved my life since discovering him
Can you do a video of your bloopers of recording because it seems like you never mess up lol
Jason Antezana Check out his double at the left end of the island during 0:19 ;)
Jason Antezana And at 3:51 in the same area you can see lighting and a hand on a camera lens.
Jason Antezana he doesn't have cut scenes because he puts videos in between edits. It masks the bloopers he makes. So instead of annoying edit cuts, he puts a scene/video/photo in between.
Thank you for this. I've found this kind of method of cycling to be beneficial for fat loss and athletic performance.
I love the design of your kitchen
Hey... you should coin this as the I-M Diet! (Insulin Manipulation)
It isn't a ketogenic diet.. It isn't a carb backload/refeed diet... and people get confused because they are too focused on carbs/fats/protein/etc.
Mate your videos are pure gold! Love hearing the studies and facts behind everything you believe in!
Your an inspiration!
From Queensland, Australia
Thanks Mr Thomas your the best

Hey Tom what do you think of dairy while on a ketogenic diet? Especially if you can't source whole organic diary
This video is great. I think you will understand him well enough if you’ve already done both diets. I do this also but most of the time in slow carbs, I’m into keto just when I need a optimized cognitive condition.
Excellent video! 👍
TOP video. Big thank you's and respect, from London
Avneesh Arora thank you for watching!!
Your kitchen looks like the very cute modern kitchens from IKEA. I love it. Thanks for the info.
Thanks AGAIN
Thomas. How long do you do the SLOW carbs ? Did I miss it?
damn your youtube following has grown immensely. Good job!
Great information! Well delivered.
valenciae271 thank you for watching!
excellent video
Another solid video, thanks for clearing up the different kind of carbs out there.
Teddy Seymour thank you for watching!!
That's so smart! I never thought to separate the fats and carbs! Thanks for the video, this will probably help with the energy issue I have. 👍🏾
Thanks for the clarification and info 😄😄
Raquel ramirez thank you for watching!
Fantastic video thank you very much for your informative content
FitAngie thank you for watching!
Thank you for this. It makes so much sense now!
Psychic Rosemary Angelus thanks for tuning in!
Thanx for ur nice videos with lots of Jeny one information. What is ur opinion regarding John Keifers Carb Nite solution.
Ok, you may have covered this before, but I am new to the channel. Mu question is this,
Why do I drip out of ketosis or my glucose rises when I sleep.
My blood glucose is around 98 when I wake up and I don't start picking color on my keto sticks until mid morning.
Thank you for reading if you get a chance.
How can you build muscle in ketosis ? I have been following you for a year now and I started being keto and it changed myself a lot
Excellent video. Thank you
Danny Henry thank you for watching!!
do you do \meal planning, yearl long program?
I love it. Thank you.
math you thanks for tuning in!
Great video Thomas. Can you please do a video addressing managing diabetes with low/slow/keno diet and the affects of insulin on losing weight.
Could you give an example of a day of eating "slow carb" specifically how you would separate your carbs and fats.
Yeah! Does he mean separate carbs from fat per meal? or overall in a day? if you have higher carb do lower fat?
Hello. How long do you suggest being in strict ketosis (to beecome fat-adapted fully) and after what time can you implement carb-loading ?
Thanks much! You're exactly right about don't combine fats with carbs especially animal fats. A few seeds maybe, like on a salad but none is best. Many people confuse carbs because they put them in one group. Complex carbs like potatoes are good while simple carbs like refined and processed foods like doritos are bad. From the Starch diet to Paleo I've been looking for an answer of what is better long term. You've satisfied my search. Great video!
Great vid! By separating fats from carbs, do you mean don't eat them in the same meal?
Good video Tom👌👌👌👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You rightly said that combining Carbs and Fat is too dangerous
How long would be separation of carbohydrates and fats?
But combining fat with carb will further reduce the overall GI of the meal .
For e.g. Humus , sessame tahini added to it lowers the GI of chick peas .
More explanation is needed on why fat should not be combined with carbs .
Hi.The cells open and we get every single calories from fat. 1g 9cal.
İf the cells were closed.no carb. The cals from fat does not all absorbe

Seperate your Carbs and your Fats. That's exactly what I wrote down on my journal a couple of weeks ago. It's amazing to see that you arrived at a similar conclusion.

How long between a high protein- fat meal and the low glycemic index carbs should there be?
Thomas this a great video I'm trying to lose weight would the Paleo be a good option for me?I would love for you to do a video on Paleo diet
waiting for you to go viral ✌️
what are your thoughts about oatmeal?
Thomas, I just signed on to say you look good, and I'm so happy for you and your Beautiful wife, handsome Lil Tommy, and your baby girL...Stay Blessed, and Keep up the Excellent Work, because you are helping a lot of people. 💚🙏🏽!
Please go further into your exact cycles, if you want. I still thought you were vague but at least I finally understand your approach better.
What should our fats and proteins be on low carb days? Normal amount?
Thanks Thomas another helpful video. Do you recommend separating fats like avocado and olive oil from my salads as well (fats and carbs)
RYAN SHAND Most salads don't have many carbs in the first place though
Ermmm veggies need fats to absorb the fat soluble vitamins.
That salad was BIG. what works for me now is keto then two days a week carbs no more than 80 grams and mostly from veggies. On high carbs days I do intense workouts now. I always eat most my fat as my last meal with spinach or kale on the side or zuchinni. I do not eat after 6 pm. I may have a glass of whiskey though. I eat my carb fruit after my first meal.

I love cycle schedule and seeing fast results and feeling stronger.. I love your videos
can you elaborate more on separating fats from carbs when on a low carb diet?
Hi Thomas, I would like to see you do a video on the topic of Keto/Thyroid/PUFA/T3-T4/iodine/Seaweed/Algae.
how long do you need to wait between fat and carb meal in your opinion?
I was falling off the wagon(of Ketogenic diet) and eating all sorts of "forbidden carbs" in this month. This video made me think about the consequence of my actions...Thanks. I will choose which carb to eat if I fall off again.
This keto diet is having me feel weak and tired. My preworkout isnt even helping me in the gym. Im doing this to get lean. But how will i be able to maintain it without kito ?
Any suggestion on a keto recipe book?
Wow Great piece of info as always @thomas
Replayed several times to digest, pretty tough. Can you please give more info on
1.) how to strategically implement high GI carbs? Be it during the Ketosis stage or the cycling stage?
2.) As you said, it’s bad to combine carbs+ fats in one meal, how about whey protein shake(think you said that spike insulin pretty high too) + fats eg, salmon or grass fed beef? Is it a no no too?
Thanks Thomas, again, congratulations on your newly born baby and welcome to Fatherhood 🎉🎉🎉
when intermittent fasting how long after workout is too long without eating. train in morning but start at 12 by morning like 6--8am is that bad.
Very informative, I'll stick with my high carb OMAD for now, I'm on maintenance.
Kurio71 Do you achieve ketosis doing High Carb OMAD?
Could you elaborate on fat and carb combinations please. So no nuts or seeds, avocado or guac with a bowl of salad and beans? When would you eat your fats and how?
What do you mean when you say "separate fats and protein"? Can I use oil to stir fry?
Good breakdown here. My carb days have gotten cleaner and cleaner and more discerning the older I get and more dialed into ketosis I get. I just don't want to feel like crap and junky foods do that, so even my refeeding or cheat days are getting more disciplined.
Can you clarify separating the fats and carbs? Meaning one meal has fat while the next has carbs?
I'm sorry, can you give me an example of a fat and carb combination so I have an idea please? This is all new to me and I've been following lately and need a bit of help! Thank you so much for all this info by the way!
How do the oats influence on level of insulin?
Like a lot of others, I too am confused by the separation of carbs and fat. I understand the separation of, say, starch and fat, but does that mean I should not have EVOO with a non-starchy veggie salad?
My question too
I guess it's all about insulin. Bread spikes it and thus fat is absorbed. I guess a cucumber won't spike it. Neither a salad.
How long should u wait to consume carbs next to fats?
What’s that dude doing in the background?
I know! lol! he must be taking notes!!
hes a producer probably
Working....lol
😂😂
Can you do full day of eating vlogs?
Much love from germany
How long should you be on this carb cycle until you go back to keto??
Is kombucha good to drink while on Keto diet?
So help me out with the not combining fats and carbs. Let’s say I have a meal of 4 egg whites and half an avocado, when would I consume say the black beans or Ezekiel toast I planned to have with it.? A completely separate meal an hour later?
Great video.
Danny Fg thanks for watching!
I like your videos, yes it's a lot to take in, but nothing is simple what's to do with food and our bodies. What do you think about certain blood type being allergic to certain foods? And could you do a video of L-lysine ? Thank you!
how long you do slow carbs? 1-2 days or a week?
Where was that park at? That looks beautiful.
Hey Thom what's up? I intermittent fast during the week and have many people I know after explaining its benefits doing the same but, I wanted to inquire about what breaks the fast other than food, particularly drinks with sugar in them. Does having let us say...orange juice or a cappuccino break the fast? Thanks, Q
Are Quest Bars OK for Keto???
What is the lowest Carb vegetables you consider eating? Is cucumbers one? And would it be ok to eat a cantaloupe with a chicken breast if you were just maintaining and trying not to gain
Hi Tom,
When u mentioned about do not combine fats&carbs when off from ketogenic diet, does it mean during the period of carb recycling period, try to keep off from food high in fats (avocado, nuts as well) or do not combine fats&carbs in one meal?
Not sure if there's already one, but can you pls do a video on how much carbs is allowed on carb cycling day or cheat day?
I wish he gave time periods. How long are his carb reloads.
I’ve have helped a few people start the diet. “Refeeds” or carb days seems to make it harder to stick to the diet.
true, however some people get over KETO entirely because the diet can get so boring after a couple of weeks without any carbs.
Matthew Roach they must not have the internet? Because you could make something different everyday for a year and not even dent the available low carb recipes, I just made peanut butter walnut chocolate fat bombs today...... Jssyn
yup true that!! I just made keto bread today, AMAZING! so much you can do on keto!
What percentage of calories are carbs when you cycle onto the slow carb diet??
